Existentialism, Second Edition concentrates on the "big four" existentialists - Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Heidegger, and Sartre - while providing a strong sense of the breadth and variety of existentialist thought. In this edition, Solomon provides new translations of Kierkegaard, even more extensive Heidegger and Sartre selections, and a bit more Nietzsche. He retains a sense of the rich variety of existentialist thought and writing by adding such world figures as Miguel de Unamuno, Rainer Marie Rilke, Luis Borges, Gabriel Marquez, Keiji Nishitani, Milan Kundera, and a scene from one particularly existentialist film screenplay, Casablanca. In addition, there are new selections from Hazel Barnes, Colin Wilson, and Fyodor Dostoevsky's Brothers Karamazov. The resulting volume is an excellent introduction to the richness of existentialist thought and an outstanding sourcebook for the classic existentialist thought and an outstanding sourcebook for the classic existentialist texts.

Notes:

- The Judge wants A(aesthete) to take choice as such more seriously.

- The ethical life involves commitments (such as marriage)

- Before being confronted by this either/or, the aesthete is not really a chooser.

Kierkegaard once wrote that " a man loses his umbrella, and he searches desperately for it all day, but he loses himself -- and does not even notice." if we ignore anxiety we lose ourselves, yet we can overcome anxiety only trough faith.
